the question is whether there was really a "firefight" or they just shot him. someone asked about an agreement by world leaders not to (try to) kill each other. I don't think that exists: rather, it's a ban on assassinations of _anyone_ across national boundaries (without an actual war, I'd guess). Or at least that's what it sounded like on U.S. National Public Radio. In the case of bin Laden, what really matters is whether Pakistan went along, even if it was after the fact. I don't know much about international law. Is the US still claiming to obey the Kellogg-Briand Pact, which bans the use of war as a method of foreign policy? -- Jim Devine / "Segui il tuo corso, e lascia dir le genti."
